Monolid double eyelid surgery: To find the method tailored to you

SH Plastic Surgery

Usually, when we face someone, we look at their eyes first,

so the eyes have a great influence on leaving a first impression,

and I believe they are perhaps the first feature many people care about regarding appearance.

At this time, double eyelids, which make the eyes look fresher and more defined,

are a eye shape preferred by many people,

as seen by the countless celebrities on TV

who have double eyelids.

However, these days, depending on individual uniqueness, eyes without double eyelids

are also showing great popularity. Therefore, there are various

monolid surgery methods depending on the eye shape one desires.

This procedure, which creates various images even with small changes,

can show highly satisfactory results only when

it is performed by meticulously assessing each individual's eye condition. Therefore, at our clinic,

with the hope that those undergoing this procedure will gain confidence

through successful results, we would like to explore this process together today.

If you are planning to improve your eye shape,

we hope your questions will be answered

through the various procedures we introduce today.

First, the monolid surgery that we commonly know

is a procedure that creates a new line on eyes without double eyelids

to make the eyes look clearer and bigger.

Depending on the patient's skin condition,

this process is divided into incisional and non-incisional methods,

and is performed by finding the method suitable for each individual's situation.

At this time, if you lack the strength to open your eyes and have a habit of opening them with your forehead,

or if you are stressed by a tired and sleepy-looking impression,

you can combine it with ptosis correction to create big and clear eyes.

However, since eyes without double eyelids are also very popular these days,

among them, there are certainly those who feel burdened by this process and, without creating double eyelids,

There are probably those who only want to make their eyes look clearer.

That is why, in order to customize the design to the desired eye shape,

without creating a separate eyelid line, to strengthen the power to open the eyes,

by passing threads through the conjunctiva rather than the skin,

we perform a method that allows the eyes to open wider.

So, what is the difference between the incisional and non-incisional methods?

First, this process refers to a method where, depending on the condition of the designed line, unnecessary fat is removed,

and then dedicated special threads are used to stitch the skin and tarsal plate together to induce adhesion.

When performed using this method, because the skin does not need to be separately incised,

it offers the advantage of a faster recovery period.

Because of this advantage, we can see that patient satisfaction is high.

However, that does not mean satisfaction is lower when done with the incisional method.

If, due to routine use of double eyelid tape, eyelid glue, or eye-rubbing habits,

the eyelid skin is sagging or there is excessive fat that needs removal,

the non-incisional method carries the possibility of coming undone over time,

which is why we recommend the incisional method.

Although it has the disadvantage of a slightly longer recovery period compared to the non-incisional method,

it has the advantage that it does not come undone over time,

and because unnecessary skin and muscle are removed,

not only can the eye shape be adjusted in diverse ways,

but you can also achieve a clean, neat impression.

Then, what about non-double-eyelid (monolid) surgery, which does not create a fold?

As introduced earlier, without creating a separate line,

this process of pulling the strength of the eye muscle through the conjunctiva

helps sleepy-looking eyes appear clear and defined

even without creating a double eyelid.

If you feel insecure due to an eye shape you are not satisfied with,

through these various methods tailored to your personal preference and skin condition,

you can present a different impression than before with clear, harmonious changes in eye size.

Because each person's facial shape, structure, balance, and harmony are different,

in order to find the line that suits you and transform you into your preferred image,

When performing double eyelid surgery, in the process of designing the line,

depending on where the line starts, it is divided into in-line, out-line, in-out line, and semi-out line—

a total of 4 types of lines.

Since each creates a completely different image,

you need to find and proceed with the line that presents the right look according to your preferred image.

So, shall we find out together what kind of image each line presents?

In-line

As a line we can commonly see, when thinking of a 'natural line',

it is the first line that comes to mind. Starting from the inner corner of the eye,

this line is characterized by its low height, so it is a line preferred by those

who pursue naturalness.

In-out line

The in-out line is an intermediate stage between the in-line and out-line.

Since the line starts right at the inner corner of the eye, compared to the in-line,

it can present a clearer double eyelid line.

Because the line starts at the inner corner of the eye, the starting part is narrow,

but it is characterized by the height of the eyelid crease becoming higher toward the back,

so it is recommended for those who want to create

a natural yet distinct double eyelid line.

Semi-out line

A line that many people have recently shown interest in,

you can see that currently popular celebrities also have this eye shape.

Because it maximizes the advantages of both the in-line and out-line,

it has the advantage of being glamorous without being over-the-top,

which is why many people are showing great interest in it.

Out-line

Known as the glamorous line among double eyelid lines,

because it starts above the inner corner of the eye, compared to other lines,

it not only has a higher crease, but it also presents a clear, glamorous, and strong impression,

making it very popular among those who prefer distinct facial features.

When performing monolid surgery, various designs can be made according to the eye shape and facial harmony.

That is why, when this process is carried out,

in order to find and implement the appropriate method and design,

thorough planning must be established through 1:1 close care for every step starting from the consultation with a medical team possessing abundant know-how,

and it must be performed safely and accurately using diverse equipment.

If you are considering improving your eye shape,

so that you can find and design a line that suits you,

please make sure to check whether they properly understand the harmony of your face and proceed with a thorough plan.

Be sure to check this.

Now, restore your confidence with beauty on another level!
